At this point, I'm a really big fan of new faces all over. Just try **** you think will work, and see if it sticks. I'm not sure there's anyone that deserves the veteran loyalty points. Nobody's performed well enough to be untouchable.
Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch dude. Can't due the guilt by association thing.
I'm just saying there seems to be more proof to back it up...with the bouncing around from org to org......maybe he's an ******* personality, as with Kelly, and nobody likes him?? I'm not saying "for sure!!"....just "maybe?" ....
Apparently this lady is on a TON of volunteer boards around the city, and knows how these things should operate. Tait says she's a great addition to the board. I'll take his word...

Just because I wanna see if I can make Dave's head pop off, Wiecek says it's not Burke's fault...Mack ****** him over with the shits of a team.......apparently.
I'm in a slopitch playoff tournament this weekend, and may have to miss the game depending on how we do. First game at 8am (!!) and depending on win or loss we're up again at 11am or 2pm. At least I can say I will not be sober during the game...it's always 5 o'clock somewhere during slo-pitch.....
that's not at all what I got from the piece about Mack. I got that he was convinced he could recruit better players down south than he'd find up north, cast off from other teams. I don't think I realized just how little he thought of Canadian football, and maybe he thought he could just take an American approach to this game because somehow US football is better than Canadian football, period. Damn shame.
I'm a huge fan of that article Wiecek did with Walters. Really sounds like the Bombers are on the right track. I will never fault Mack for how he did things, but I'm not opposed to doing things the "normal" CFL way for the time being. Getting back to being even an AVERAGE team would be a step up at this point...
And as for Glenn, the word at the time was that Calgary was asking for Chris Matthews and our 1st Rounder. In the winter, would you have made that deal? I sure wouldn't. Mack was right to balk at both the Reilley and Glenn "deals"...
